EMDR is a great and effective therapy. I did exposure therapy. Studies found that EMDR sometimes needs to be repeated after the initial treatment. Often two or three times over years. It's almost as though it can wear off. At least that's how EMDR sounded to me. Also I personally couldn't reconcile how blinking at lot while talking could help anything (EMDR is MUCH more than that). I had a few people in the outpatient therapy program I was in do EMDR. It worked great for them and I only know of two of the four needing to repeat treatment after about a year.
Exposure therapy is kind of like desensitization. You speak in great detail about your trauma with your therapist over and over. You say everything that happened and when you're done you say it over and over and over. It's rough, it's triggery, it's kinda of horrible while you're doing it. It was even rough on my therapist. I'd do it all over again though because it really worked well. The bonus to exposure therapy other than the long term healing is that just about any good therapist can do it. In fact my therapist and I bought the same book/workbook series in an effort to learn more about doing exposure therapy correctly and effectively. The funny thing is neither of us knew the other was buying it. He showed up to my next session with the therapist book full of bookmarks and I showed up with the workbook. Finding a therapist you can trust and connect with is key. If after a few sessions it feels like they aren't hearing or understanding you. It's time to find a new one. This is the series my therapist and I used.
